"In accordance with the COVID-19 protocol defined by UEFA before the Euro 2020 matches, all players and members of the entourage underwent RT-PCR tests on Saturday," Portugal said in a statement on Sunday.
"The results, with the exception of Cancelo, were negative."
Portugal under-21 international Dalot, who plays for Italian Serie A side AC Milan, will join the team's delegation in Budapest to prepare for his debut at Euro 2020.
Dalot had been part of the side which reached the Euro U21 final earlier this summer, losing to Germany on June 6. Dalot played every match.
